Fractional CFO Advisory · Guyana & the Caribbean

Executive Financial Oversight, Without a Full-Time Hire

Your bookkeeper keeps the books. Nobody senior is reviewing them. CAPEX Advisory brings statutory discipline, management reporting, and strategic judgment to businesses that have outgrown a bookkeeper — without the cost of a full-time CFO.

Executive Case Simulation

When a Rice Exporter's Bank Gave 72 Hours for Audited Numbers

A commercial bank has approved a working-capital facility — subject to management accounts the business has never produced. The bookkeeper has entered every transaction correctly for three years. No one has ever closed the books, reconciled the balance sheet, or built a report a lender would sign off on.

You are the owner. The bank meets Friday. What do you do?

The Gap

You built the business. Who's reviewing the money while you run it?

Four blind spots we see most often in growing Guyanese businesses.

Compliance Risk

GRA, NIS and statutory filings depend on your bookkeeper catching everything — nobody senior is checking.

Blind Decisions

Pricing, hiring and cash calls get made without management accounts to test them against.

Financing Friction

Banks and JV partners ask for board-ready financials your business can't produce on short notice.

No Second Opinion

The person who built the business is also the only one reviewing its numbers.

What This Is

Your bookkeeper keeps the books. We make sure they're right — and tell you what they mean.

A fractional CFO retainer: senior-level financial review, compliance oversight, and strategic advice — without adding full-time payroll or replacing the staff you already have.

Engagement Tiers

Three Tiers, One Growing Relationship

Every tier keeps your existing bookkeeper in place — we add the oversight layer.

Tier 1

Controller & Statutory Oversight

  • Books review & month-end close
  • GRA and NIS compliance sign-off
  • Monthly briefing session
Tier 2

Fractional CFO & Growth Strategy

  • Everything in Tier 1
  • Management reporting & KPI dashboard
  • Rolling cash-flow & working-capital management
Tier 3

Strategic Executive & Corporate Finance

  • Everything in Tier 2
  • Multi-entity consolidation
  • Banking relationships & board-level input

Pricing is scoped to your business during a diagnostic conversation — not a one-size fee.
